Hi All! I already E-mailed Wayne about this, but I thought I would share this with the rest of the group in case anyone got one of these recently and hasn't assembled it yet. I bought the KSB2 with my K2...Unfortunately, when I bought the radio and options, the KSB2 was out of stock. It took a few weeks to get this option because some components were no longer available, and Wayne and the Elecraft team had to perform some redesign work. I got one of the new boards, and the assembly was going by swimmingly this afternoon until I hit a snag...ALL if the 1N4007 diodes will NOT fit into their holes because the leads are too thick. This is more than a "tight fit"...They just plain don't want to go in at all. I am not going to attempt to widen the holes on my own as there isn't much real estate to work around, and I don't want to damage traces.
Just an FYI, and no need for replies. 73, David, KC9EHQ K1 s/n 2051 K2 s/n 7164 ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
